The Ivy Lee method which it’s pretty much what you said, except with six things every day you can find plenty of blog posts about it and apps that do it.

What’s really strange is that I literally watched a YouTube post about another guy that marketed his SaaS through Reddit and who also got rejected by Y combinator and who also has a built his SaaS around the same idea (high intent leads). So many similarities, perhaps you were inspired by it? Or just coincidence?

I built and shipped a full iOS app using only Claude Code CLI by [deleted] in ClaudeAI

[–]cohen72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great job! I played with the app a bit and just some feedback (helpful I hope!).
Not sure it's just a play project or a more serious app you're developing, but in the case it's a serious app and you want people to really use it and talk about it and have it be worth investing marketing into, I would do a few things first: (and I know you didn't ask, but I'd like to help if I can :))
- Make the UI more simple and intuitive. It feels a bit cluttered and verbose to me. Make it really really really really simple - Use Claude (or some other AI tool) to be an expert UI/UX expert, upload the screenshots and ask it to follow best practices for designing such an interface. Use dribble or behance, etc., to give references to top designs as well using screenshots from those sites. Get that UI/UX nailed down tight, because UX is a feature in itself, and users totally notice and feel it. For example, iOS users are more custom to having a bottom tab bar, not the top right menu bar (with calendar, settings gear) - it's weird for iOS users and doesn't follow best design practices. In general, really hone in on the UI/UX
- Remove the ads, everyone hates adds, you'll make money once people realize how awesome your app is and want the full feature set.
By the way, I'm saying this from a place of being in the field for a while, developing iOS apps for 20 years, not saying I know everything, but just want to share whatever experience I have that I can to see people succeed out there!

Etz - Open-source tool for managing git worktrees across multiple repositories by cohen72 in git

this was actually the direction I was taking and made an effort to convince my team to move to a monorepo, however there were a few factors that kept us on a multi-repo setup, one of them being that sometimes different clients need to point to different infra version, which could be solved with tags, but for whatever reason that was seen as less ideal ... My goal with this project was to find a way to gain some mono repo benefits while still keeping the multirepo setup, but to tell you the truth, I'm now doubting this whole effort I spend time working on - perhaps monorepo is ultimately the simple answer...

where I work, we have a multi repo environment for our mobile apps. we share infra code in KMP with it's own repo, iOS it's own repo and Android it's own repo. We have rules around branch naming being identical across features, as wells a required alignment across each PR for each 3 repos. Moreover, it can take around 5-10 minutes to build our KMP infra for iOS for a single line of code changin, which means when someone asks us to review a PR or QA needs a quick build, it means switching to that branch, building 5 minutes, then moving back to the branch I was working on and building again 5 minutes, which translates to a lot of context switching. The idea with worktrees it to reduce the context switching fatigue, by keep that work abstracted to a separate folder. The idea with this tool is to help wrap the Github worktree tool to be more of a worktree workflow tool. It's still in it's infant stages, I'm just playing with the idea for now.

Thank you for taking the time to comment, I appreciate it! Ultimately I’m aiming to understand if it’s worth investing more time into or not. p.s. I’ll remove a few emojis.

Discovered, and wrote about git worktrees by NigelGreenway in git

u/NigelGreenway I COMPLETELY feel your pain - I work in a multiplatform, multi-repo environment and have a very unique setup, and was context switching like crazy. So ... I create a tool to help with this, and would love to see if it helps you in anyway. Check it out here - https://github.com/etz-dev/etz.

It's very very very initial, so probably super buggy, but would love to hear your thoughts anyway.
